It’s a week of drills and challenges, from physical fitness to public speaking. Orders are barked, rules are meant to be followed, and lessons are learned. At the end, members of the Southborough Police Department hope it’s a week that changes some lives.

Many of you may remember there’s a project in the works to upgrade Main Street, one that will include repaving the road and widening it at some points. While selectmen approved the project design in 2010, still outstanding was the question of whether utility lines along Main Street should be buried underground while the reconstruction work was taking place.

Today is the last day for Southborough Town Administrator Jean Kitchen, who is retiring after six years on the job. At her final Board of Selectmen meeting on Tuesday night, selectmen thanked her for her service.
